CAST AWAY FIRE MEME MAKER
ORIGIN & LORE
Released in 2000, the survival drama Cast Away features one of the most iconic moments in cinema history starring Tom Hanks as FedEx executive Chuck Noland. After being stranded on a deserted island, Chuck finally succeeds in generating a flame after countless failed attempts and physical exhaustion. He frantically dances around the beach, holding a burning stick and screaming at the top of his lungs, 'Look what I have created! I have created fire!' This clip has become a staple in meme culture for representing a hyperbolic sense of triumph over relatively simple or overdue tasks. It captures the raw, primal energy of a man who has conquered nature, which internet users apply to modern-day 'survival' scenarios. Common uses include successfully fixing a minor technical issue, cooking a basic meal without burning the house down, or finally understanding a complex concept. Example captions include: 'Me after finally plugging the USB in correctly on the third try,' 'When I successfully assemble a piece of IKEA furniture without any leftover screws,' and 'Me after fixing the router by simply turning it off and back on again.'
